Jeffrey meets his new sister
After a mostly sleepless first night with our new daughter, Jeffrey rang the wake up bell a little after 9AM. Bridget and Meghan brought him to be the first person to meet Elena. We wanted to make sure that he knew that he was going to be first; it was his special time to get to meet the person who would be his little sister for the rest of his life.
He came in sporting a yellow smiley face mylar balloon. “I brought you a balloon, Mama!” Then he stopped in his tracks as he passed her bassinet. Hmmm… what’s this?
It was empty because Dani was nursing her at the time. He checked that out, and pet her head while she fed. Then I set him up in a chair and let him hold her… with some supervision of course. Let’s just say that Jeffrey is not known for his gentle touch.
“OK, I’m done now.” As if he was asking to be excused from the dinner table. We ate breakfast together and then Jeffrey tried to make a break for it with her in the bassinet. I scooped her out just before the collision with the hospital bed. Fortunately, it will be sometime before I have to teach either of them to drive.
not even 24 hours old and he’s already trying to get rid of her. Took beanie almost a year to try that one.
What a great big brother he’s gonna be as they grow up together.
great to see the family Meehan is growing – great success to all of you.

He’s such a big boy! I can’t get over it. Love him trying to hijack the bassinet with her in it.
